Since Rabbit will be in NYC on Wednesday, August 14th, the notion of doing a get-together has been put forth (on the Twitters).

I cannot afford a trip via Amtrak, but if I use a service like Boltbus I can manage (only about $23 total). There are two issues, though.

1) Timing, and 2) I have no idea how to get around NYC. One stop is at "34th and 8th by Tick Tock" and the other is "6th Between Grand and Watts", neither of which mean anything to me. Last time I did this my friends picked me and dropped me off in a car, so I have no clue my way around NYC's transit system.

What I'm saying is I'll be needing a local chaperon if I'm going to make this trip.

If it's after work on a Wednesday I'll be more likely to join, since I'll already be in Manhattan anyway

ccesarano: I'm not sure where "6th between Grand and watts" is (Edit: Greenwich Village/lower west side area) but getting around-wise, 34th and 8th (must be on the doorsteps of Penn Station) is a good jumping off location to get elsewhere in the city.

That was really nice! Great to meet Growat, ChrisLTD, SometimesDee & T-Prime, as well as the two new guys - Steve, and the one whose name I didn't catch. I was barely staying on my feet for the last hour - hopefully I'll be in better shape for the next one
